[2]Institute of Electronic Appliances and Circuits, Department "Reliability and Safety of Electronic Systems", University of Rostock, Rostock, Germany
Modern electronic assemblies and printed circuit boards (PCB) with their sensitive structures and elements have to be protected against environmental influences by conformal coating or casting compounds. In this case the main challenge is the simultaneous curing of the polymers and the safekeeping of the electronic elements and structures on the PCB. This implies the investigation of the heating ...

[2]Università degli Studi di Roma "La Sapienza", Roma, Italy
Liquid crystals - as all liquids - are generally modelled as incompressible media. In fact, mass-density changes occurring in these mesophases are minuscule and inconsequential in most regimes of interest. However, liquid crystals exhibit also phenomena that call for a more refined theory. In particular, it is experimentally well established that the Fréedericksz transition - i.e., the sudden ...

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Capitals defenseman Mike Green played 26:30, took four shots and blocked four shots in his first game since Feb. 25.
"The game had to go to overtime," Green joked after.
"I felt great once I got my legs and got comfortable playing again, I felt good, so that wasn't a question."
Coach Bruce Boudreau said he thought Green's play was impressive.
"I thought his first period might have been as good as he has played in a playoff game. I thought it was outstanding for a guy that hasn't played in six weeks to come back in a game like that," Boudreau said.
Boudreau expecting the worst
The Washington coach said he wasn't optimistic the video replay would result in a tying goal for the Caps late in the third.
"I'm never confident, because people who have followed us would know that every time there's been one of those, it has gone against us -- somehow, some way," Boudreau said.
This time things worked out, as Alex Ovechkin was given credit for the goal with 6:16 left in regulation.
"You could tell the puck was in the net but the two things you didn't know was whether the whistle was blown and whether the net was off from the angle we were looking at. That's why I was asking the linesman if he called it a goal on the ice because that was important," Boudreau said.
New York coach John Tortorella said he had no issue with the goal.
"It looks like the ref is looking to blow the whistle, but I am not sure what his thinking was. They called it a goal; I am not going to whine about it," Tortorella said.
Semin happy to win -- in any language
Although he's been in the NHL since 2003-04, Alexander Semin has yet to master the English language or at least enough to deal with the media. He spoke to reporters through a translator (local journalist Slava Malamud).
Asked about breaking a 14-game playoff scoring drought, Semin said the victory was the key.
"I feel great, we won the game, that's the most important thing," he said.
"I just saw the puck get intercepted. Just a situational play. I tried to get open and then tried to shoot as soon as possible because the defenseman was right there."
Series Notes:
The overtime game marked the sixth time the two teams have gone to overtime in the postseason, and the Rangers are just 2-4 in those contests. Wednesday's game was the longest overtime game played between the two teams.
Henrik Lundqvist now has played in the past 27 Rangers contests. He has started in 30 consecutive postseason games for the Rangers.
The New York Rangers were plus-6 goals in the first and second period in the regular season but a whopping plus-22 in the third period. They scored their only goal Wednesday in the third. The Capitals, meanwhile, were outscored in the first 60-54 this season, but they rallied to outscore opponents 156 to 126 in the final two frames.

John Ivison: Suspicious minds have suggested that Russia would have vetoed the invitation, had Dion followed through on a Liberals commitment to introduce the legislation
'We have no current plans to remove Iran from the list of state supporters of terrorism under the State Immunity Act'
Stephane Dion's handling of the Saudi scandal shows his doctrine of "responsible conviction" is code for twisting and turning, depending on which way the wind is blowing.
The Tory government approved the Saudi contract and the Liberals decided to honour it because they said cancelling it without cause would trigger costly penalties
Dion approved the export of LAVs after government officials advised him that they were satisfied the Saudis would not use the combat vehicles against their own people
Despite public opposition, the Liberals have been quietly building bridges with the autocratic regime.
Barbara Kay: Ottawa would earn more respect if it spoke out loudly against the blatant hypocrisy that are a commonplace of UN activities when it comes to Israel
Michael Lynk has a right to his opinions. But his anti-Israel advocacy should exclude him from a 'neutral' UN post.
The weightless puffery of "responsible conviction" suggests the Liberals would rather be liked than taken seriously
The Tories at least did what they thought was right. The suspicion is that, in the new spirit of compromise, the Liberals will do what all sides agree to be wrong

Dallas Stars defenseman Mark Fistric (groin) and forward Krys Barch (foot) both are out for Friday night's game against the St. Louis Blues at American Airlines Center.
Fistric, who was injured in a practice on Tuesday, was put on injured reserve Friday afternoon with what the team called a lower-body injury.
The Stars will go with Jeff Woywitka again and Severin Blindenbacher, called up from earlier in the week, will be a healthy scratch.
Barch was injured in Wednesday's game against Ottawa. X-rays on his foot were negative.
"He tried this morning before we went out for our skate but he couldn't put any pressure on his foot," Stars coach Marc Crawford said. "It will be a case where he is out until the pain subsides. They've done all the X-rays and all the other sorts of things, and it is just a bruise. He could be ready as early as tomorrow or he might need a few days."
Crawford said he wasn't sure if the Stars would call up a forward, but they would go with their 12 healthy forwards Friday night. That means Brian Sutherby will be back in the lineup.
Kari Lehtonen gets the start in goal Friday. Crawford said he'll make a decision on Saturday's starter either after Friday's game or on Saturday.

- Buyback-happy U.S. firms are prohibited from repurchasing shares from about five weeks prior to releasing quarterly earnings to about 48 hours after those reports. These blackout periods, says Goldman, may offer an especially tasty time for investors to pick up shares of their favorites.
- "High valuations in the absence of corporate demand may weigh on stock prices," says Goldman's Amanda Sneider, and particular areas of focus are tech, consumer discretionary, and financials - they've accounted for more than 50% of buyback activity.
- Goldman's buyback blackout theme buys: SanDisk (NASDAQ:SNDK), Yahoo (NASDAQ:YHOO), Travelers (NYSE:TRV), Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), Juniper Networks (NYSE:JNPR), Xerox (NYSE:XRX), Torchmark (NYSE:TMK), F5 Networks (NASDAQ:FFIV), Citrix Systems (NASDAQ:CTXS), Aon (NYSE:AON), Moody's (NYSE:MCO), VeriSign (NASDAQ:VRSN), Hartford Financial (NYSE:HIG), Ameriprise (NYSE:AMP), Corning (NYSE:GLW), Time Warner (NYSE:TWX), Seagate Technology (NASDAQ:STX), Viacom (NASDAQ:VIAB), Legg Mason (NYSE:LM), XL Group (NYSE:XL), DirecTV (NASDAQ:DTV), Allstate (NYSE:ALL), Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA), CBS (NYSE:CBS), Macy's (NYSE:M), Kohl's (NYSE:KSS).
Feb. 6, 2015, 12:54 PM
- Verisign (NASDAQ:VRSN) guided on its Q4 CC (transcript) for 2015 revenue of $1.04B-$1.06B (3%-5% growth), slightly unfavorable to a $1.06B consensus. However, that's better than feared given concerns about weakening .com domain name registration revenue.
- Meanwhile, the company expects 2015 op. margin to be in a 60%-62% range vs. 60.2% in 2014, and gross margin to be at least 80%. Domain name revenue is expected to rise 2%-3.5%.
- Also: Verisign has added $453M to its buyback authorization, bringing its total size back up to $1B. $209M was spent on buybacks in Q4, and $867M over the whole of 2014.
- Verisign saw only 590K net new domain name adds in Q4 (gross registrations totaled 8.2M), below guidance of 700K-1.2M and contributing to the Q4 miss. However, net adds are expected to rise to 1M-1.5M in Q1. The renewal rate (though fluctuating a bit) remains around 72%.
- 2014 free cash flow was $568M, well above net income of $383M.The deferred revenue balance rose 3% during the year to $890M.

Feb. 5, 2015, 4:20 PM
- VeriSign (NASDAQ:VRSN): Q4 EPS of $0.70 misses by $0.02.
- Revenue of $255.91M (+4.2% Y/Y) misses by $0.79M.
Jan. 26, 2015, 11:40 AM
- Four days after JPMorgan downgraded Verisign (NASDAQ:VRSN), Credit Suisse has cut the site authentication/doman name service provider to Underperform. Its target is $47.50.
- Like JPMorgan, CS sites the potential for slowing domain name revenue growth. It's also critical of Verisign's relative valuation. Q4 results arrive on Feb. 5.
Jan. 22, 2015, 11:25 AM
- Arguing new top-level domains are cannibalizing the company's .com registration revenue, JPMorgan has downgraded Verisign (VRSN -1.5%) to Underweight ahead of its Feb. 5 Q4 report. The firm's target remains at $57.50.
- Shares have largely tread water since Verisign's Oct. 23 Q3 beat. They trade for 18x 2015E EPS.
Oct. 23, 2014, 4:19 PM
- VeriSign (NASDAQ:VRSN): Q3 EPS of $0.70 beats by $0.01.
- Revenue of $255M (+4.6% Y/Y) beats by $1.4M.
Sep. 6, 2014, 8:43 AM
- The "total" yield of a company combines the dividend yield and the buyback yield - that is the yield boost from reducing the total amount of shares outstanding. Together with S&P's Howard Silverblatt, Barron's puts together a list of the top 20 companies in the S&P 500 based on "total" yield.
- While buybacks don't guarantee a strong stock - witness consistent buyback champs like IBM and Kohl's (NYSE:KSS) - Warren Buffett goes to bed at night praying for IBM's share price to go down so the company can buy back more stock for a given dollar amount (though The Oracle has said he doesn't expect this logic to win many fans).
- The flip-side are those companies - financials and energy come to mind - who tend to buy back stock at high prices only to find themselves forced to reissue it at lower prices when times get tough. A consistent plan helps, and Travelers (NYSE:TRV), under CEO Jay Fishman, has been maybe the best example of this - halving the share count since the end of 2006.
- ETFs? The Powershares Buyback Achievers Portfolio (NYSEARCA:PKW) gained 45.6% in 2013, 1,300 basis points better than the S&P 500. Since inception in 2006, it's up an annualized 9%, more than 200 basis points better than the S&P. A newcomer - the Cambria Shareholder Yield ETF (NYSEARCA:SYLD) - has beaten the S&P by about 250 basis points since its May 2013 inception.
- The list (ranked in order of "total" yield): ADT, CAM, CF, MOS, MPC, VIAB, GLW, ITW, STX, IBM, NOC, CTL, TRV, VRSN, IR, CCE, KSS, NTAP, HES, DO.

- Though Verisign (NASDAQ:VRSN) missed Q2 revenue estimates (while beating on EPS), it guided on its CC (transcript) for full-year revenue of $1.003B-$1.012B, in-line with a $1.01B consensus. In addition, full-year op. margin guidance was hiked by 100 bps to 59%-61%.
- $300M was spent on buybacks in Q2, fueling the EPS beat. Verisign is adding $491M to its buyback authorization, raising its size to $1B. The company has $1.5B in cash to finance buybacks with.
- Q2 domain name net adds totaled 420K, towards the low end of a 300K-800K guidance range. But Verisign expects net adds to grow to 600K-1.1M in Q3.
- Total active .com/.net domain names amounted to 128.9M at the end of Q2, +3.7% Y/Y. However, processed domain names slipped by 200K Y/Y to 8.5M, and the company discloses renewal rate fell 60 bps in Q1 to 72.6%. The deferred revenue balance is up $35M YTD to $890M.

- Wells Fargo has downgraded VeriSign (VRSN -3.6%) to Market Perform. The firm is worried slowing domain name registration growth will pressure VeriSign's top and bottom lines.
- Shares edged higher earlier this week after Google announced it's becoming a domain name registrar.
Jun. 24, 2014, 9:53 AM
- Web.com (WWWW) and Endurance International (EIGI) are plummeting following Google's launch of a domain name registration service aimed at small businesses.
- Meanwhile, Google launch partner Wix.com (WIX) is going in the opposite direction. The company announced this morning its registered user base has topped 50M, and that 3M+ mobile sites have been built on its platform.
- B. Riley has cut Web.com to Neutral. Its PT is still at $40.

Apr. 9, 2014, 6:55 PM
- While much of the attention in recent weeks has been on high-flying momentum stocks falling back to earth, there's also been a big rally among many of the stocks with largest short positions.
- Rallies in heavily shorted stocks are being driven by hedge funds pulling back on all their stock positions, so as bullish positions in high-growth stocks have been ditched, short positions have been closed out as well.
- Among the top 10 most shorted stocks, seven have rallied over the last month - with four up by double-digit percentages - even as the S&P 500 has dropped 0.8%: GameStop (GME, +11.5%), US Steel (X, +13.9%), Joy Global (JOY, +7.2%), ADT (ADT, -0.9%), VeriSign (VRSN, -8.6%), Essex Property Trust (ESS, +0.6%), Quest Diagnostics (DGX, +13.1%), Microchip Technology (MCHP, +2.8%), Western Union (WU, -1.9%), Frontier Communications (FTR, +13.6%).
Apr. 9, 2014, 2:02 PM
- The NYT reports leading domain name registrar Go Daddy (best known for its colorful Super Bowl ads) has hired JPMorgan and Morgan Stanley to handle an IPO that could occur later in 2014.
- Go Daddy was acquired by P-E firms KKR and Silver Lake, and VC firm TCV, for $2.25B in 2011. In addition to domain name registrations, the company offers Web hosting, site design, and SSL certificate services. Rivals include VeriSign (VRSN) and WIX.
- The company hired former Yahoo product chief Blake Irving to be its CEO in 2012, and has been trying to develop a more corporate-friendly image.

It seems like we are in a wave of stories trying to make sense of the financial crisis and the surrounding moral vacuum.
For Mexico, the possibility -- however unlikely -- of a Trump presidency presents itself as a nightmare scenario since it directly threatens the two most critical dimensions of the bilateral relationship: immigration and trade.
When the El Paso Chihuahuas took the field against the San Diego Padres last week, it was a significant event on many levels -- only some of which will be on display on the field.
The decision by Slovenia, Croatia, Macedonia and Serbia to close their borders effectively shuts down the Balkan escape route for Syrian refugees. Ironically, the same government in Brussels that cut this deal had criticized Hungary for closing its borders last summer.

Twelve thousand years ago, our Neolithic ancestors moved from a nomadic lifestyle to a domestic one. They built the first hearths, farms, and houses. The first societies, villages, communities. And, incidentally, the first walls.
The border is a place characterized by intense contradictions. That's my conclusion after spending almost a week in southern Arizona as part of a faculty immersion seminar to learn about border issues.
It is to be hoped that in the long-term, Bernie's "political revolution" will give rise to a more inclusive and internationalist spirit, thus challenging the limited confines and debates which have so recently clouded meaningful discourse.
The box office success of the film Sicario, which has grossed over 50 million dollars as of Oct. 18, seems to reflect the public's taste for violence and drama, especially at the border. Yet, how much do we really understand about the realities of those living in that space?
In order for someone to migrate from Mexico to the U.S., he or she must identify that the stream of benefits (wages) net of all the costs (direct and indirect) is greater than the benefits of staying in place.

About Me
I couldn't refuse the tremendous opportunity to come to NYU Langone in 2013. To be the chair of the Hansjörg Wyss Department of Plastic Surgery in an institution with such a remarkably rich surgical history allows me to follow in the footsteps of giants in the field. The energy of NYU Langone, in the heart of New York City, empowers all of us working in this department to treat any patient in need of reconstructive plastic surgery successfully.
I treat patients who've had traumatic injuries resulting from boating or motor vehicle accidents as well as those with disfigurement due to cancer treatment, congenital birth defects such as cleft lip, and skeletal, jaw, or skull abnormalities. I also specialize in microsurgery. Using this procedure, for example, I can transfer muscle from one part of a patient's body to another—to the face to enhance a smile, or to a limb to restore function. The most gratifying part of plastic surgery is that I treat patients from head to toe.
Many of the most important advances in reconstructive and cosmetic surgery were developed here at NYU Langone. I've been involved in a significant amount of research that has led to great improvements in facial transplantation. Our work has made this procedure safer and more feasible for wounded veterans, civilians, and first responders.
Since 2005, when the first face transplant was performed in France, we've been studying the long-term effects of facial transplantation surgery, such as how patients tolerate medications afterward and how to reduce the number of medications they must take to prevent organ rejection.

Being the data person I am, I went in search of reviews on the Hurricane 14 to help with my decision. I didn't find many reviews on the updated version, but I did find this article and video discussing the main differences between the Hurricane 13 and 14. The doctor in the video made a few good points, enough for me to question going to the Hurricane 14. Instead, I decided to try the old version. I'm very aware that this does me basically no good if I like it and want it later...but I went this route anyway. I can always reevaluate the Hurricane 14 once it's been out longer and reviewed by more runners.
I'm going to back up for a minute to explain why I'm really conscious about what running shoes I buy. Unfortunately, I have bunions on both feet, which have been there since way before I began running. I'm not at a point of needing surgery or being in constant pain when I'm running, but I fear getting to that point and every once in a while I get a little pain under the bunion in my forefoot. I experienced some bunion progression when wearing a lower stability shoe (Asics 3010), a shoe that felt amazing and I thought was going to be my forever shoe. Sadly, after wearing out 3 pairs of that shoe I realized that was not the case.
Now, in trying to prevent more trouble and to give myself peace of mind, I've gone back to the heavier stability shoes and make sure to wear a wide width. Is the the right approach? I'm really not sure. I have asked the question at various running stores and of personal trainers, and the answer is generally yes, stick to a wide stability shoe. I'm still not sure whether to believe that stability wins, but I'm also not willing to take too many chances with minimal or lower stability shoes until I have a good answer.
Back to my run in the Hurricane 13 today. I set out to do between 3 and 4 miles, and from the first step the shoes felt very different from the Brooks Adrenaline, as if I were landing more flat-footed. I also felt slower (I need NO help being slow) and a little clunky. Running felt more normal after a few minutes, but the Hurricane 13 is much more rigid than I'm used to. Here are my main pros and cons.
- Not the reason to buy shoes, but I like the design and color! All of my wide Brooks shoes end up being blue and I get tired of the same color.
- Cushioning feels nice overall.
- The width and bunion window is good for my foot. They fit perfectly, snug in the arch-lock section where they need to be and loose enough at my forefoot.
- The Hurricane 13 doesn't feel as tapered in the toe as other shoes, which helps fit my foot better.
- It feels heavy and clunky.
- The shoe is more rigid than I expected, and I felt flat-footed (perhaps because they don't bend as easily?) This may ease up after a few more runs.
- The tongue slips to the side even with the laces through the loop, and it is pretty short. I noticed it had slid a lot after my run, but it didn't necessarily bother me during.
The jury is still out on if this will be a new go to shoe for me, but I'm going to give it a shot on my shorter runs for now. If nothing else, I'll be happy to have another pair to alternate. Besides, I can't return them. Kitty is loving his new bed.

By any measure the language is rough and the joke appalling, but only if you think of this as something *other than* comedy one-upmanship. My only complaint with the film is that it wasn't long enough and some comics were just face time (like Jon Stewart and Chris Rock). Here's my highlight reel:
BEST DELIVERY Martin Mull, laid back and hilarious. Taylor Kegan, smooth and articulate.
DADS TALKING DIRTY: Andy Richter and Doug Stanhope with their infant sons. Funny and freakishly disturbing.
MOST OBNOXIOUS: Mario Cantone, Andy Dick
VETERAN GREATS: Jay Marshall (who also has a terrific joke in the end credits) and Pat Cooper, the misanthrope.
COSMIC COMIC CHICKS: Carrie Fisher, Sarah Silverman, Wendy Liebman
NICE TOUCHES: The Joe Franklin-Sarah Silverman "relationship"; the very last comic in the end credits (can't say who he/she is, or I'd spoil it for you); comments by journalist Frank DiGiacomo; all the extra goodies on the DVD version.
BIGGEST SURPRISE: How the "same" joke can be told so differently yet reveal so little about the comic.
Do not rent this dvd. Buy it. I'm sure I'll get something new each time I watch it.
Yes, it is horribly disgusting, sickening, and grotesque. Yes, it involves people talking about utterly disgusting & despicable acts. Yet, it raises several intellectual points.
1. The entire movie is people talking about taboo subjects in a humorous manner. Are you offended? Why? Why not? This is an excellent example of free speech!
2. Why is it funny? Why are you laughing so hard? You analyze the nature of comedy.
3. A hundred different people tell the same joke in different ways and they all generate laughs. It is definitely the violinist and not the violin.
If you can only buy a few films a year..this should be one of them. I've seen it 5 times and each time I laugh harder and pick up on something new. I've never enjoyed a film more.
Hollywood should sit up and take notice. If more people put out movies like Paul Provenza and Penn Jillette.....Hollywood wouldn't be in the slump that it's in right now.

Purina Horse Feed is partnering with A Home for Every Horse and www.Equine.com to give $125,000 worth of free horse feed coupons to rescue shelters in the United States.

iPad takes 89 per cent of global tablet web traffic
The iPad continues to dominate the market that it virtually invented on its own. comScore stats released point to the Apple tablet claiming an 89 per cent of worldwide tablet web traffic in May this year.
What does this mean exactly? Well to put it simply, more people browse the web on their iPad than any other tablet, meaning significantly more Apple tablets out in the wild than anything else. But we already knew that.
The US is particularly iPad-centric, with no less than 97 per cent of traffic from the device, the remainder being made up primarily by, you guessed it, Android.
Apple's mobile web traffic dominance doesn't stop at the iPad, take somewhere like Canada where no less than 83 per cent of non-computer web traffic is from iDevices.
The competition continues to arrive as more and more mobile manufacturers jump on the tablet bandwagon, but it looks like Apple's year -long head start has given them a serious lead.
So what is going to topple Apple from its throne? Android? Let us know below...

Vt. contractor plans expansion, solar projectThe Associated Press | January 11,2013VERNON - A Vermont construction company is planning a 6,000-square-foot solar project and an expansion of its metal-fabrication business.
Renaud Brothers in Vernon makes structural steel.
Plans call for a 75-kilowatt solar-power project to be done by March. The panels would be tied to the electrical grid.
The Brattleboro Reformer reports (http://bit.ly/SlYE2c) the company has received a certificate of public good for the solar project from the Vermont Public Service Board.
Regarding the other project, plans call for a 3,000-square-foot addition to a 5,000-square-foot building. That will allow steel storage and prefabrication to take place under roof.MORE IN Vermont NewsPHILADELPHIA Vermonts delegation to the Democratic National Convention took center stage...

|Link Java - JavaScript - Java for testing purposes
|Mon, 12 Mar 2012 20:55:56 GMT
Hello everyone, I'm a master student computer science at Ghent University (Belgium). For my dissertation I'm trying to test PhoneGaps apps by making use of the native test framework (starting with Android). therefore I need to make the link from Java (in the JUnit tes) to JavaScript (get some innerhtml or something) and back to Java (in the test). Does anyone has experience with this? At this moment I already have the link from Java to Javascript. I just makes use of the sendJavascript method of DroidGap. Then I go back to Java by using a plugin I wrote. That's all fine, but now the native plugin methods can't be void, because the JUnit test needs methods with an answer. I think I need to write something similar to the callback methods in the JavaScript code. If someone has some tips, they are very welcome! Kind regards, Jolien Coenraets

There will be a Game 163. The Rays beat the Blue Jays 7-6 in Toronto and the Rangers beat the Angels 6-2 in Arlington on Sunday, deadlocking both teams at 91-71 and necessitating a one game playoff for the right to face the 92-70 Indians in the Wild Card Playoff game. Cleveland beat Minnesota 5-1 on Sunday and will host the winner of the Rays-Rangers matchup on Wednesday. It looked like a win for the Rays would be easy to achieve on Sunday after they jumped out to a 6-0 first inning lead, eventually adding a seventh run before the Blue Jays put a run on the board. But Toronto chipped away with three in the sixth, one in the seventh, and two in the eighth to close within a run of Tampa Bay. The Jays put the tying run on base in the ninth, but couldn't move him past first base as Fernando Rodney closed the door to record his 37th save of the year. In Arlington, it was a different story. The Angels jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the first inning, but the Rangers took a 2-1 lead in the fifth after a two-run single by Craig Gentry. A Josh Hamilton RBI single tied the game at two in the sixth, but Texas once again jumped ahead, this time scoring after a Geovany Soto RBI double. The Rangers tacked on another run in the seventh and two more in the eighth to secure the win and ensure that the Rays would have to win one more game to earn their Postseason berth. Meanwhile in Minnesota, the Indians didn't flinch. In defeating the Twins 5-1, a game in which they never trailed after a first inning two-run homer, they extended their winning streak to ten games, ending the season on a high note. As the AL's top Wild Card, they'll host the winner of the Rays-Rangers game on Wednesday night at Progessive Field. The 2013 playoff nod is Cleveland's first since 2007, when Eric Wedge led the Tribe to an AL Central title with a 96-66 record. Players like CC Sabathia, Victor Martinez, Jhonny Peralta, and Grady Sizemore were all integral parts of that Indians team, and the only member of that 2007 team to still be with the team is Asdrubal Cabrera, who was a 21-year old rookie second baseman at the time. The game between the Rangers and Rays will take place at 8:07 PM on Monday night at Rangers Ballpark in Arlington. David Price will take the hill for the Rays in possibly his last start with Tampa Bay, while the Rangers will counter with rookie Martin Perez. The winner will move on to Cleveland Wednesday night, and the Tribe is starting 23-year old uber rookie Danny Salazar. Just when you think you were out, they pull you back in. Get ready for some fun tomorrow, folks. [follow]

Book Summary
Laithe Gatti needs a mate. With males outnumbering females ten to one, odds are poor that he will find her among the Felidae. Laithe's pride is depending upon him to find the woman who completes them. Rowan Brandt needs a change of pace, but she definitely isn't expecting a seven-foot-tall, fur-covered man to walk into her life. Not only does he get hair on everything, he also informs her that he will be sharing her with his pride.
Asad Gatti knows what he wants. Asad has lusted after Catan ever since the pride rescued the little Lynx from a brutal attack. Catan's dreams are filled with terror. The only man he has ever wanted is Asad, but he isn't sure if he can ever be what the big Leo needs.
Aaron Coleman has just been thrust into a world he didn't know existed. He's forced to adapt to life among alien beings. Despite his own serious misgivings, he can't stop thinking about both the fun-loving Lev and the wise-cracking Morgan.
Navin Citrakaya is in trouble. His brother Rajiv's rival is after Navin, and won't rest until he claims Navin. Navin needs a protector, fast. Isha Rajendra will protect Navin under one condition -- Navin must submit to Isha. Completely...
Felidae don't have anything remotely similar to Christmas, so Rowan's decided to go all out for Laithe and Fahd. Homemade presents, Christmas baking and a heck of a surprise are going to keep her men on their toes this year.
The Felidae collection contains the previously published novellas Laithe's Pride, Asad's Mate, Usama's Journey, Lev's Discovery, Navin's Master, and Rowan's Men.

* To whoever decided to book the famed [[Music/SexPistols John]] [[Music/JohnLydon Lydon]]-led experimental art rock band Music/PublicImageLtd - a band who never troubled the US pop charts - [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hZLhqTzjpUM to perform on the show in 1980]].
** Especially when John Lydon showed his jovial side while being interviewed by Dick Clark and when he decided to invite all the Bandstand kids back up to the dance/stage space for the band's second song. One of the best music TV moments in American TV history.
* Some other unconventional "American Bandstand" musical guests, this time from the show's 1960s incarnation -- Music/{{Captain Beefheart}} (via telephone interview with Don Van Vliet and an unlikely-looking young female fan who continues talking to him happily while the "Bandstand" kids dance to "Diddy Wah Diddy") and, in one of their first appearances on American television, Music/PinkFloyd with Syd Barrett still [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6MMMN0VZmYw in the band]], back when they were still playing esoteric psychedelic rock. Dick Clark had his finger on the pulse of the FUTURE of music back then!
* When Dick Clark said in an interview that he would never join the A.A.R.P. because he never wanted to lose touch of "the kids". One got the feeling that if he could've done so, he would've kept "Bandstand" going until he couldn't stand anymore.
* The time {{Music/Madonna}} made her first appearance on the show; it was her first appearance on national television and she was already full of confidence. When Dick Clark asked her in the post-performance interview what her plans were for the future, she confidently said, "To rule the world."
* The "Bandstand" kids of the late 1970s managed to invent a dance that is still danced to this day at wedding receptions and other such gatherings; they pioneered the moves that everybody does when dancing to the Village People's "YMCA".

Kim Kardashian said she plans to raise her new bundle of joy to "not see color."
During an interview with BET for her new movie Temptation, the reality star opened up about how she plans to raise a biracial child with boyfriend Kanye West.
"I have a lot of friends who are of all different nationalities and their children are bi-racial so they've talked to me a little bit about it and what to expect," she said. "The most important thing is, the way I want to raise my children is to not see color. That's important to me."
The 32-year-old went on to say that she'll learn other aspects of motherhood through simple trial and error. "There are experiences that you won't really know how to prepare for until you really go through it but raising a child in general is challenging," she said. "I think that as long as you are open-minded and don't have any pre-conceived ideas of how you're really going to try to raise your children, it really keeps this … broad spectrum. Obviously, you want your child to travel the world and experience different races and different cultures everywhere. So that's really important to me is to just give them as much information as I could."
Kim and Kanye are set to become first-time parents in July. And, if the rumors are true, they are considering North as the baby's name.
North West? How does that sound to you?

Skip to comments.Briton 'gets Chinese accent after bad migraine'
Posted on 04/20/2010 6:57:07 AM PDT by Artemis Webb
A British woman has suddenly started speaking with a Chinese accent after suffering a severe migraine, she said in comments quoted by British media Tuesday.
Sarah Colwill believes she has Foreign Accent Syndrome (FAS) which has caused her distinctive West Country drawl to be replaced with a Chinese twang, even though she has never even visited the country.
The 35-year-old from Plymouth, southwest England, is now undergoing speech therapy following an acute form of migraine last month which reportedly left her with a form of brain damage.
"I moved to Plymouth when I was 18 months old so I have always spoken like a local. But following one attack, an ambulance crew arrived and they said I definitely sounded Chinese," she said.
"I spoke to my stepdaughter on the phone from hospital and she didn't recognise who I was. She said I sounded Chinese. Since then, I have had my friends hanging up on me because they think I'm a hoax caller."
Colwill added: "The first few weeks of the accent was quite funny but to think I am stuck with this Chinese accent is getting me down. My voice has started to annoy me now. It is not my voice."
FAS has been documented around the world and is usually linked to a stroke or traumatic brain injury. It was first recorded in the early 20th century...
(Excerpt) Read more at breitbart.com ...
This has to be one of the weirdest stories ever. How rare is this?
It is really just a symptom of Needing Government Disability Cash, NGDC for short....look for her to claim compensation
Here it is on video.... [NOT work friendly]
I sometimes start speaking Spanish when I drink too much tequila...
I have a relative who had a terrible stutter until he had a brain aneurysm - the stutter is gone and acquired a quirky accent for a New Englander.
I am of Chinese descent. In high school, a Caucasian friend worked at a south suburban Chinese restaurant near Chicago. After about three months, I started to notice he would use the "pidgin" English the Chinese (mostly Cantonese) restaurant staff would use. My mom used to get a big kick out of his phone calls. It was pretty funny.
My first thought was stroke.
There are other causes as well, mostly neurological. One engineer I had worked with struggled hard to speak, and later on was completely unintelligible. He had to use a notepad. My first thought was that he had a stroke, however that was not the case. He died a year after he retired.
You see a lot of that here in Sweden. In fact, it's so widespread anytime anyone tells me something happened to them I wonder how "real" it is.
I've spoken different languages in my dreams. Seriously. Strange experience.
It sounds goulish, but neurological researchers live for this kind of information. They can't get it by direct experimentation, unfortunately, unless they're Hannibal Lecter.
Did they ever determine a physical cause?
She's turning Japanese,
I think she's turning Japanese,
I really think so.
A coworker who speaks nothing but English was staying with some friends who overheard her talking in her sleep. She was speaking German. One of those who overheard her was fluent in German and said that to the best of her understanding the sleep-talker was a Luftwaffe pilot radioing that he was in trouble. Now, that's strange.
Isn't speaking with a *fake* accent racist? I mean, I know it's fun and all, and it's okay if it's a southern accent (as long as you're making fun of southerners), but I thought any imitation of any other accent was hateful, bigoted racism in this PC world we live in, regardless of intent?
Considering how many of us have mimicked a Monty Python line in a British accent that would make us all racist. :)
Wow. That's amazing. I've been told I talk in my sleep, but no reports of German. But German was one of the languages I spoke. Also spoke Italian, Russian and Japanese. So strange!
Pretty much, he put the R's where they were supposed to be and left them out where they weren't.
Wickid Weiad...;)
Strange things happen with strokes. Ever notice that often stroke victims can't speak but they can still curse?
Did you understand what you were saying in those languages? I had taken Spanish for several years and never felt fluent in the language until I dreamed in Spanish one night.
Yes, I did, ironically. I was more mystified why I wasn't dreaming English. It was as though I was watching myself in a foreign film. I have a background in French and can read it pretty well but not the best at speaking it.
I have heard some theories on this type of phenomenon, that the brain stores all kinds of information such as what was heard in movies, read in books or overheard conversations that are recalled unconsciously. On the other side is reincarnation, transmigration of souls, etc. Nevertheless, it is very interesting. I speculated with my coworker that she might have seen a war movie with such a German pilot, but she could not recall or relate to such an event.
Well, I know I hear voices, just didn't know they were from reincarnated foreigners! LOL.
I think I may have done that as well though I don't recall any of it. My wife says I have talked in my sleep in a foreign language. Another time she said I talked in a deep southern accent about a "yankee patrol over yonder". It's wierd.
I've read theories that we are born with the memories of our ancestors. Crazy stuff!
replaced with a Chinese twang
Wonder if this Chinese twang can write like our Mark Twain.
"Yes, yes, speakee speakee... me Blitish consul."
Hey now, that's wasist.
attempted brainwash?
Did you get the reference? Note that it's a quote.
Gee..never heard of that but the brain is an amazing organ.Having worked for a Neuropathologist for a while and having watched many Science Channel/PBS type documentaries on the brain I become more and more fascinated.
I saw a documentary once that focused on different cures for serious seizure disorders (epilepsy).One treatment (experimental,I think) was to sever the "corpus collosum" which connects the two hemispheres of the brain.In such patients you can,for example,put an easily identifiable object in their hand while they're blindfolded and they can't *tell* you (verbally) what it is they're holding but they can write it down.There were many other equally wierd things as well.I find stuff like that beyond amazing!
Ping list worthy?
Years ago, I did some rehabilitative craft work with home-bound stroke victims. One of the clients was an elderly man with aphasia and left side paralysis. He was a fluent curser, while everything else he tried to say was gibberish.
It was explained to me that people who habitually used some words/phrases before the stroke retained those because the synapses were so well-reinforced.
Signs only pointed to some neurological cause, the obvious first suspicion of stroke was ruled out. There was no outward sign of motor problems otherwise, as in gait, coordination, etc. He was quite physically active, involved in some natural habitat restoration activity (getting rid of invasive plant species in a prairie area), and still intellectually sharp. Not being able to communicate verbally must have been depressing.

"The Audi A4 Avant is a desirable, practical and high-quality estate car with a luxurious and comfortable interior."
The Audi A4 Avant is a premium estate car that counts the BMW 3 Series Touring and Mercedes C-Class Estate as direct rivals. While cars like the Skoda Superb Estate, Vauxhall Insignia Sports Tourer and Ford Mondeo Estate perform a similar function to the Audi for significantly less money, they can't quite match the A4 Avant's outright badge appeal. The Audi also features a nicer interior than any of its rivals, even if it's not quite as much fun to drive as the BMW 3 Series Touring.
The A4 Avant is available with three petrol engines and four diesels, while the option of Audi's quattro four-wheel-drive system provides extra grip, should you need it. Broadening the range further is the Audi A4 Allroad (which we've reviewed separately) with its more rugged looks and raised ride height, there's also a high-performance S4 version available and the hugely exciting Audi RS4, which is due to be released later this year.
The entry-level engine is a 148bhp 1.4-litre petrol, which can go from 0-62 mph in nine seconds, returns 51.4mpg and costs £130 a year to tax thanks to CO2 emissions of 131g/km. There's also a 2.0-litre petrol engine, available with either 187 or 249bhp. The less powerful of these falls into the same road tax bracket as the 1.4-litre, while fuel economy figures of 48.7 and 46.3mpg respectively are impressive, especially considering the 187bhp model can go from 0-62mph in 7.5 seconds. The 249bhp engine has four-wheel drive as standard, costs £130 a year in road tax, and manages 0-62mph in six seconds dead. The quickest petrol version will be the S4, which uses a twin-turbocharged 3.0-litre V6 to produce 349bhp. this is enough, alongside four-wheel drive and an eight-speed automatic gearbox - to get it from 0-62mph in just 4.9 seconds. Despite this prodigious power output, running costs shouldn't be too prohibitive, wither, returning 37.7mpg, while CO2 emissions of 171g/km means a £210 annual tax bill.
In reality, the A4 Avant will be most popular with a diesel engine. There are two to choose from: a 2.0-litre and a 3.0-litre, both are available in two power outputs. We think the sweet spot of the range is the cheaper 2.0-litre diesel with 148bhp. If you choose the efficiency-orientated 'Ultra' version of this engine, the A4 Avant can return 70.6mpg, costs just £20 a year to tax, yet will still go from 0-62mph in 9.2 seconds. At the other end of the scale, the 268bhp 3.0-litre diesel gets the A4 Avant from 0-62mph in just 5.4 seconds, costs £130 a year in road tax and returns 53.3mpg; it's expensive, though, at over £40,000.
On the road, the A4 Avant has accurate, well-weighted steering, making it easy to place accurately. Potholes and poor road surfaces cause little disturbance thanks to the well set-up suspension, though the larger wheels of the top-spec S line model do adversely affect this. The rear-wheel-drive BMW 3 Series Touring is ultimately a more engaging car to drive, but the A4 Avant is comfortable, competent and relaxing.
The A4 Avant's trump card is its interior. While Audi has long been known for its well designed dashboards, the A4 Avant benefits from high-quality materials, well designed and easy-to-use controls and Audi's new (and optional) 'Virtual Cockpit', which replaces the traditional dashboard dials with a high-resolution customisable digital screen.
There's plenty of space front and back for adult passengers, while the 505-litre boot is larger than the 3 Series Touring or Mercedes C-Class Estate's – although the slightly less upmarket Skoda Superb Estate and Volkswagen Passat Estate offer bigger load areas.
Audi offers the A4 Avant in three trim levels. The entry-level SE model comes with DAB radio, keyless go, a powered bootlid, air-conditioning, a leather steering wheel, alloy wheels and cruise control, as well as Audi's smartphone interface. Moving up to Sport trim brings sat nav, sport seats and an upgraded stereo for about £1,000, while the top-of-the-range S line trim costs about £1,500 more than Sport. It includes larger alloy wheels, LED headlights, a subtle bodykit and part-leather seats. Interestingly, Audi doesn't include full leather seats in any of these trims; Mercedes, on the other hand, fits all C-Class models with (synthetic) leather seats as standard.
While the A4 Avant is too new a car to have featured in our 2016 Driver Power customer satisfaction survey, Audi's 21st-place finish out of 32 manufacturers is somewhat uninspiring. Everything in the Avant feels very well put-together, though. The A4 Avant's excellent safety credentials are drawn from the A4 saloon, which scored a reassuring five stars in its Euro NCAP assessments.
